Really?!? Did you order a standard build or BTO?
Previously for my macs arriving in the UK it was the green and yellow vans - I can't remember who that courier is?!?
Got a tip for us?

13" i7/16GB/1TB w/regular shipping ordered immediately after the announcement on 10/22.
Received Fedex notification at 6:44AM today, Apple notification at 8:56AM.
Delivery scheduled for Wed 10/30 - but having it held at a Fedex Office store for pickup, since I am flying back in from out of town and don't want to wait the extra day in case I get home after the attempted delivery.

Ordered the 15" with 16gb ram , 512gb storage, 750m graphics right when it went live. Mine is now out for delivery 
))) I'm in California it was originally scheduled for tomorrow but bumped up a day last night waiting for the delivery is a very hard wait lol .

My 15", 16GB, 1TB went to 'preparing for shipment' earlier today, ordered about 3pm CST on Tuesday, and just saw a charge on my credit card, so perhaps it will ship today (still hoping, but....). Maybe worst case ship out tomorrow, and might get here by Tuesday before I fly out on my week long trip Wednesday.

I ordered mine the morning after the announcement, specifically for being able to pick it up in-store. Still says processing, with a pickup date in-store on Nov 4.

Hello fellow Canadian! I just ordered the 15", 2.3/16/1TB to be delivered to Toronto. I selected the Expedited option and it says delivery will be Nov 1 - 5th. Here's hoping to see it on or before Nov 1st!
I almost went for expedited shipping but then decided I could wait 3 more days. Now I'm not so sure....lol.
I finally ordered today. Took me quite some time to decide. But now I couldn't be happier with my decision, because it I believe it is a perfect balance of my needs and the money I put in.

Haha - u ordered the max. That's like buying a private plane after realizing you'd be traveling a lot.

Same here. I was hoping mine shipped yesterday, but oh well. if I don't get it tomorrow, I'll have to wait until next Thursday when I get back home.
I don't think there was ever a chance that BTOs would get delivered on Friday. Monday at the earliest.
I was hoping that some systems would have been shipped to local stores with the systems already prebuilt - it's not as if there are so many possibilities.
When they sent the standard builds, they could have shipped 100 of 2.6/16/1tb, 100x 2.6/16/512. How hard would that have been?

Well yeah, but Apple generally just doesn't do that. I should just drop down to the i5 and go pick up the base model at the store and save myself $300, but I think I'll stay the course.
